Embossing
Embossing involves raising areas of a card surface above the level of the rest. The diagram below shows a coat of arms that has been embossed on bizcard. The images stands out from the card as it has been produced by a stamp which presses the card to the correct shape.
Made this card for watercolor class. Another card and more details on my blog - createdbybjk.blogspot.com
close-up of a dried textile that has become like bas-relief, looks embossed. this is not the final colours, it would change to more cleaner and brighter ones after washing in some natural solvent.

March technique for NZ forum - Paint and an embossing folder. You add paint to the inside of the folder and then put some watercolour paper in and press it down...Like stamping with the folder. It was something a little different - it comes out splotchy. I sponged some distress ink on the piece and then stamped the HA stamp on the middle (can't find it anymore on the site). Coloured with Copics

Here is a recent picture of my boyfriend and me. It's been a while since I have done any editing so I decided to play around with embossing filters.

Since we knew we'd be sending lots of mail over the next few months we invested in a personalized address embosser from Papersource (www.paper-source.com). Repeated use is murder on your hand, but waaaaay better than writing the address over and over again. We ended up using it on our invites, thank you cards, christmas cards, etc, etc.
I've been working on some embossed cookies for some Wedding Professionals on my area, little goodies for them to take home :)
I love making cookies ...
A familiar setup for subjects on a black glass/acrylic base, acrylic here as the amount of dust will indicate.
Main difference to my usual setup, is the addition of a white reflector above. This is a cheap white memo board which sometimes gets hung on the wall for scribbling notes on. Often described as a dry wipe board, which uses pens with water based inks that will just wipe off with a dry cloth.
This is just resting on top of a pair of tracing paper screens, through which the Neewer SF-01 mini slave flashes are fired. Both activated by Blazzeo SLT-4 radio triggers mounted on mini tripods. The flashes are shielded from the black backdrop which is approx 12inches/300mm behind by a couple of sheets of black card attached to the screens with clothes pegs.
Simple but effective :)

Exploration is wired into our brains. If we can see the horizon, we want to know what's beyond.

Heavily processed Cassini image of Saturn's south pole. I used an image of Arabic calligraphy as the seed image.
STAMPtember is here and I got to create with the gorgeous Nature Mandala by Stephanie Low! For these two cards I used heat embossing. For the kraft card I simply stamped the image in VersaMark, applied some embossing powder in Enchanted Gold by Ranger and then heated. The panel was trimmed down on one side and adhered to a card base along with a strip of gold glitter cardstock. The sentiment is from the SSS Mom Flowers set. The top card uses the emboss/resist technique and distress oxide inks in Wild Honey and Spiced Marmalade. The sentiment is from the Take Heart set combined with the layered heart die set.
